Supplements

Unsure whether or not supplements can improve your health? Confused about which ones to take? It seems that everywhere you turn healthcare practitioners are singing the praises of vitamins and supplements, but the contradictory information is overwhelming. Which vitamins or minerals are right for you? How much do you need? What brand is best, and is it really worth the price?

To ensure only the highest quality, I’ve teamed up with Metagenics and Pure Encapsulations. I stand behind the companies reputations for delivering quality products that are safe, effective and manufactured with integrity. I’ve done the research so my clients don’t have to.

I am certified educator and First Line Therapy coach for Metagenics because I wholeheartedly believe in the product line and the research they conduct to back it! The neutraceuticals and programs have proven their quality by thorough laboratory testing, as well as in clinical trials. The trials have shown Metagenics products to be as effective, or in some cases MORE effective than pharmaceuticals in the prevention, control and treatment of many conditions. The research published by Metagenics and outside parties has established high efficacy for treatment of:

  • high cholesterol
  • management of blood sugar levels
  • arthritis and joint pain and discomfort
  • digestion issues, gas and bloating
  • stress, anxiety, mood and cognition
  • Hormone imbalances such as PCOS, PMS, menopause and andropause
  • toxicity

These benefits and high efficacy come with little or no side effects; what pharmaceutical drug can say that? Furthermore, the integrity of the programs is maintained though training and certification programs. Your programs are available only through specially trained and licensed health care professionals (like myself)—the people qualified to recommend and tailor a regimen that’s unique to your individual needs

What kinds of products are available from Metagenics?

  • meal replacement shakes designed to stabilize your blood sugar
  • high quality Omega 3 (EPA/DHA) supplements for controlling inflammatory response and cholesterol
  • probiotics produced in highly controlled settings and proven stability
  • arthritis/joint pain formulations that rival NSAIDs in pain relief without the side effects
  • products to support anxiety, depression and sleeplessness
  • multi-vitamin packs designed for men, women and for various health concerns
  • hundreds of vitamins and minerals tailored for specific dietary needs
  • detoxification programs created to optimize kidney and metabolic function to restore energy, reduce inflammation and allergies and remove heavy metal toxins
